Aldens's ManifOrd CyclOpedia.

The second volume Of this work,
now on our table, even better than
the first, ful6lls the promise Of the
publishers prospectus. 1t is really
handsome volume of640 pages, half
Morocco binding, large type, profust- :
ly illustrated, and yet sold for the
price Of IS cents; cloth binding only
90 cents-postsge IL cents extra.
Large discounts even from these
prices are allowed to early subscrib-
ers. 1t is 10 be issued in about thir-
ty volumes.
The Mandifold Cyclopedia is, in
many ways, unlike any other Cyclo>
pedia. Il undertakes to present a
survey Of the entire circle of knowl-
edge, whether OF words or of things,
thus combining the characteristics of
a Cyclopedia and a Dictionary, in
Guiding in its vocabulary every word
which has any claim to a place in the
English language. Its form of pub-
lication is unique as its plan-the
"1deal Edition" its publisher calls it,
and the popular verdict seems to sus-
tain his claim. 1t certainly is de.
lightfully convenient. It will not be
strange if this proves to be the great
popular cyclopedia. 1t certainly is
worthy of examination by all search.

What Chinamen Have Done.

China is nearly as large as Europe,
and contains a much larger popula-
ton. every third man in the world be-
ing, it is calculated, a Chinaman.
Their progress in the past has been
most marked; 4; thus the Chinese appear
to have been among the earliest, If not
the very earliest, of the human race to
emerge from barbarism. They have o
literature older than the days of Moses,
and astronomical observations that 90
back at least to the days of Abraham.
Comparing their early progress with
that of European nations, they were
clothed in silk robes when our savage
ancestors still painted their naked
bodies. They invente d printing, and
had printed books about the middle OF
the tenth century, 500 years before the
time of Caxton. Gunpowder and the
mariners compass were Chinese in
ventions long before they were known
to Europeans. Lieut.. H. n. Shore
pointed out some time ago that IN the
matter of canals, the utilization of car
rier pigeons, the artificial culture or
oysters, fish, and poultry, and in the
satisfactory solution of the great sew
age question, the Chinese have been
before us in time, and, in some OF
these at least, are still ahead of US IN
results.

OYergrown Boys.

There can scarcely be more refined
method of cruelty than that OF ridicul-
ing the awkward movements of boy
whose superiiuity of flesh or stature
prevents his moving gracefully among
his more naturally formed brothers
and sisters, and yet fathers and moth
ers, as we'll as thoughtless friends or
playmates, are often guilty Of thus
wounding the feelings Of the over
grown boy who is so unfortunate as to
have been born among them. Even
the attainment to q noble and perfect
ly symmetrical stature (which the
years always bring to such O one, il
his health does not fail under the ex-
ira imposition of labor which his mis-
taken friends require of him), cannot
atone for the cruel hurts he thus re-
ceives. If he is sensitive child, they
rankle in his very soul, and do untold
harm there.
Some parents are in such haste for
their children to become men and wO-
men that they force them on, hasten
their development in every possible
way, and if nature favOrs them by be-
slowing a more than ordinary growth
in bone and flesh upon any of their
children they are rejoiced to have the
excuse to impose duties and exact be.
havior according to the number OF
pounds avoirdupois, when in reality
there is no standard to 60 by. Toe
many children are thus defrauded ol
their childhood, and who is prepared
to answer to such a charge, by and by,
when it shall be brought against him
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1887-12-21

United States-pre-eminently the land
of newspapers-who cannot afford a
newspaper. This excuse might have
held good in otden times, when news
papers came into being by laborious
process, and wheu the hand performed
expensively what the huge press now
does cheaply. In the early days of the
newspaper, it was merely luxury for
the rich; now it is a necessity for the
poor, and cheap necessity too.
THE RESPONSIBILITY AND DUTY OF
THE EDITOR.
If the Press is a power in the land
for good or evil, how immense. then
must the responsibility be of those
who control it. No one should under
take the work who is not fully alive to
the responsibility he has assumed.
The editor should WELD the sword Of
truth, and hold the scales of justice.
He should enter the family circle as
an angel of light, and pot as the SER
pent entered Eden, to blast and to de-
stroy.
He should ever bear in mind
that he is an intellectual aud moral
educator, and that his paper is sumo
thing more than the mere means by
which he gains a living.
1t is Almighty fectol in the cause o.
education and human progress; a
owerful pleader in the interest of suf-
feriug humanity; friend to religion
and helper in every good and bene>
fcent work.
Such is the true Mission of the
Press; and the editor who reveres and
properly appreciates his high calling,
stands like the statue CT Guttenburg
in the city of strasburg, with print
ing press by his side, and q scroll in
his hand, with the inscripion-"And
there soas light"

About "Salt."

"Let your speech be always with
grace, seasoned with salt"
When you give your cellar its fall
cleaning, add little copperas-water
and salt to the while-wash.
For relief from heartburn or dys-
pepsia, drink little cold water in
Which has haen dissolved teaspoon
full of salt.
Sprinkling salt on the tops and at
the bottoms of garden walls is said to
keep snails from climbing up or down.
For weeds in the grass put pinch
or two of salt i'm the middle of each,
and, unless shower washes it OFT, it
will kill the weeds.
Ink stains OH linen can be taken out
if the stain is first washed in strong
salt and water and then sponged with
lemon juice.
Ina basin of water, salt, of course,
falls to the bottom so never soak salt
fish with the skin side down, as the
salt will fall to the skin ana remain
there.
For stains on the hands nothing is
better than little salt with enough
lemon Juice to moisten it, rubbed on
the spots and then washed off in clear
water.
If chimney or fiue catch OH fire,
close all windows and doors first then
hang a blanket in front of the CRATE to
exclude all air. Water should never
be poured down the chimney, as it
spoils the, carpets. Coarse salt thrown
down the f1ue is much better.
Salt and water boils at higher tenn
perature than water alone; so little
salt should be added to the water in
which all vegetables are cooked, even
if the receipt calls for more seasoning
at the last. A teaspoonful of salt to
quart of water is the right proportion.
